Thank you for sharing your findings .
I find on my K2/10 5 watts is good. On K2/100 and K3 25 watts is good. My
KX3 is good at 4 watts , I think it is lower because max power is 10 watts.

Hi,
after carrying out on air tests with several K3-100s I found that a PSK
signal becomes unacceptably wide over about 48 Watts out (indicated on the
K3 meter and/or a power meter).
80 Watts out would not get you any friends on a crowded band.
Similarly, the internal 10 Watt amp starts to spread with PSK at around
5watts, so with the K3 for PSK best to avoid power over about 50 watts and
between 5 and 12 watts (when the 100W PA kicks in).
